Photinia fraseri 'Carre Rouge' is a popular evergreen shrub that is commonly grown for its vibrant red foliage. This cultivar is a hybrid of Photinia glabra and Photinia serratifolia, and it is known for its compact growth habit and stunning appearance.

The leaves of 'Carre Rouge' are a glossy dark green color when they first emerge, but as they mature, they turn to a bright red shade that is especially striking in the spring and summer. In the fall and winter, the leaves may take on a deeper burgundy color. The foliage of this cultivar is also slightly smaller and more rounded than the leaves of other Photinia varieties.

In addition to its attractive foliage, Photinia fraseri 'Carre Rouge' produces small white flowers in the spring, followed by red berries that add to its ornamental appeal. This shrub is relatively low maintenance and can be grown in a variety of settings, including as a hedge, specimen plant, or in a mixed border.

Overall, Photinia fraseri 'Carre Rouge' is a beautiful and versatile shrub that is sure to add color and interest to any garden or landscape.

About Us

During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.
